With a focus on key areas such as socio-political contexts, employment, education, health, and family challenges, this book provides a holistic approach to understanding and addressing the complexities of migrant settlement. Australia's rich cultural landscape is shaped by its status as a migration nation, with over half of its population either born overseas or having at least one migrant parent. While migration is a key element of Australia's growth, regional areas face unique challenges in attracting and retaining migrants. Despite government initiatives, skill shortages persist in regional industries, prompting a need for comprehensive policy addressing migrant needs and regional development. This book fills a critical gap in the literature, offering valuable insights for academics, policymakers, and service providers. It not only highlights the challenges faced by migrants in regional Australia but also underscores the importance of community capacity-building and support services in facilitating successful settlement. 410 0$aSustainable Development Goals Series,$x2523-3092 606 $aPolitical planning 606 $aPolitical science 606 $aPublic administration 606 $aSociology 606 $aPublic Policy 606 $aPolitics and International Studies 606 $aPublic Management 606 $aSociology 615 0$aPolitical planning. 615 0$aPolitical science. 615 0$aPublic administration. 615 0$aSociology. 615 14$aPublic Policy. 615 24$aPolitics and International Studies. 615 24$aPublic Management. 615 24$aSociology. 676 $a320.6 702 $aSamad$b Ataus$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aHebbani$b Aparna$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aGeorgeou$b Nichole$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9911046010103321 996 $aBeyond the Cities$94469785 997 $aUNINA
